I realy need to watch this movie

...it's an *okay* movie: perfectly servicable Standard Hollywood Treatment^TM^; competently directed, performed, and edited; genre trope in-jokes liberally sprinkled throughout... ...i believe most positive reactions stem from defying expectations that it be a ***bad*** movie, rather than actually being *good*...Absolutely not. I fucking loved this movie. It pivots between things a few times and they're all interesting. It's got humor too. It really captures what a d&d campaign feels like.

Surprisingly good movie, and accurate to the source materialB- b- but Owlbears aren't a beast! A- and she wild shapes too many times in too short of a time period!

Such an unexpectedly good movie. You should definitely watch. And oh my God do I love that fat dragon more than anything...I have a plush of him! I love it!

Yep, and at some point the DM lost his patience with the group and introduced a friendly OP NPC (the paladin) to get the story rolling already.Another meme I enjoyed was that the DM made up that the hither thither staff was magic just so they could cross the bridge and then the party proceeds to break a poorly thought out, unintentionally over powered item.

Nah, that wasn't an NPC, that was a friend who showed up for only a week. That's why they asked him if they would see him again before he left.Also possible, yes. The way he almost acted like a robot at the end was a dig at him being an NPC, I thought. But it could also be a dig at Paladins always being straightforward, literally. That's the great thing about the movie, many gags work on several levels.

The best scene was where one character was in handcuffs and kept rolling too low to get out and the camera kept switching from one character who was doing awesome stunts back to them doing nothing useful the whole fight.The best part about that scene is that while he's fumbling his escape rolls, Edgin's still churning out Bardic Inspiration so Holga can continue kicking ass.
